Cybertruck bed vault lighting is so clean (clearest photo yet)

[Mini2nut]

I was hoping the bed would be SS like the concept. I’m guessing Tesla used a composite bed for lighter weight to help increase range.

I'm not sayin they should not. It is a truck after all. Just curious, you dont look like that by carrying lumber.

I'm just curious what cargo they've been carrying back there to get it that filthy.

Having lived in Cali for years, I believed simply driving it around Cali's polluted environment with the vault opened, will get it that dirty...?

Seats fold up, and the entire back with window swings inward into the cabin. Keeps the seats clean, and the tonneou cover can bend in that direction.

yes I understand, but we can transport bags of sand, concrete, fertilizer and that makes the box dirty, like! ?

Don't be an idiot.

Good for sleeping in there. When my wife kicks me out for getting the performance variant

VIAGRA is a lot cheaper…?

Does the back window go down? That would make a huge difference for car camping.

I dont know for sure but I'm gonna say yes

Hmmmmm????? That really really looks like a Pass-through

No access or HVAC from cabin to vault

no rolling window, no midgate, no pass-through

just truck

Wasn’t realistically expecting it. Just hoping.

Why do those sidewalls look like they're at an angle?

I like where your head is at.

Considering it has large castings, structural pack, and stainless outer panels (exosupport), what is the biggest barrier to the rear window going down or midgate?

If the rumors of 124kWh battery pack are true, we are coming in below 400 miles (probably 350-370 mi). We haven't seen a lot of power plugs in the bed (maybe a small box for 2 plugs) or frunk, smaller frunk, 2.5 seats in the rear, no midgate, no opening rear window or tailgate ramp (or some type of innovative feature)...... the silverado ev is going to be a more functionable product (if they dont go bankrupt).

Your eyes serve you well.

I’d guess, roughly:

COGS vs COGM vs [utility to customer] vs [consequences to product]

where:

COGS = ~target market MSRP of CT

COGM = ~assembly and materials OpEx

[utility 2 c] = : ~how many folks will actually use it (and be willing to pay for it)

[consequences] = ~ eg added weight, reduced range, effect on crashworthiness, effect on repair costs, etc., etc.,

in all, basically, “juice not worth the squeeze”
